Bloland will not return—Hubbard
By RIVIAN TAYLOR Editor
President John Hubbard confirmed Tuesday a widely held suspicion that Paul Bloland will not return in the fall as vice-president for student affairs.
Hubbard made the announcement to 31 students, administrators, faculty members and staff who met to discuss the student affairs division, and after lengthy debate, agreed to set up immediately a search committee for a new vice-president.
“I have come to the decision I should not ask Dr. Bloland to come back,” Hubbard said. He implied that this decision was a recent one.
Until Tuesday’s announcement the university had denied rather persistent rumors that Bloland had been dismissed. Officials explained that Bloland’s absence was caused only by his sabbatical leave, granted in August, 1971.
Hubbard said he hoped the group could decide on whom to recommend to the Board of Trustees, which meets today.
After this introduction Hubbard suggested that Alvin Rudisill, university chaplain and chairman of the Commission on Student Life, replace Bloland. Hubbard said that if the appointment is not made internally (selected from someone within the university), “we’ll never get the person we want by September.”
Hubbard said he was aware the situation might look like a set-up because Rudisill was appointed last fall to chair of a commission that was to set up guidelines for the student affairs division. “Well, I'm going to deny it (any set-up) just this one time,” he said.
In the discussion that followed, though, the group refused to accept Hubbard's suggestion for several reasons.
Some commission members said that completion of the commission report was of the utmost importance and that if Rudisill took the vice-presidency he could not oversee its completion. They said a decision should be postponed until the report is finished this summer.
It was finally decided that a search committee should be appointed immediately because it could use interim commission reports and because of the time factor. Hubbard said he would appoint the committee within a week.
Meanwhile, Daniel Nowak, who has been serving as vice-president in Bloland’s place, will continue. He was mentioned along with Rudisill as candidates for the vice-presidency.

Carl Oglesby, past president and a major theoretician of Students for a Democratic Society, will speak today at noon in Bovard Auditorium.
He is the second of four radical speakers sponsored this week by the Conference Committee of the ASSC.
Oglesby, currently a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, was a leading civil rights and antiwar advocate during the 1960s. In addition to serving on the International War Crimes Tribunal, he is the author of “Containment and Change,” a study of American foreign policy.
Besides Oglesby and Tom Hayden, New Left activist who spoke Tuesday, Howard Zinn, a civil rights worker, will speak Friday and Marcus Raskin, codirector of the Institute of Policy Studies in Washington. D.C., will speak next Tuesday. The theme of the lectures is “A Radical Paradigm for the Seventies.”
While Oglesby was president of SDS, he addressed an antiwar march in Washington in November, 1965. As a result of his remarks, the New Left movement turned away from conventional liberalism and swayed towards revolution.
He said that America’s commitment in Vietnam was carried out by Presidents Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy and Johnson—all liberals, he claimed.
“Not long ago, I considered myself a liberal,” Oglesby said at the time. “I’d perhaps have quoted Thomas Jefferson or Thomas Paine, who first made our nation’s unprovisional commitment to human rights.”
Oglesby then began to make a distinction between two types of liberalism—an authentically humanist philosophy and one not so human at all. He said that present-day liberals aim “to safeguard what they take to be American interests around the world against revolution or revolutionary
change, which they always call Communism, as if it were that.
“In the case of Vietnam, this interest is the principle that revolution shall not be tolerated anywhere and that South Vietnam shall never sell its rice to China.”
A month later in Washington, Oglesby addressed another march and criticized corporate liberalism for ruining everything by its fantasies of benevolence.
“They are fantasies because we have lost that mysterious social desire that could make them real. We have become a nation of young, bright-eyed, hard-hearted, bullet-headed make-out artists,” he
said.
“(We are) a nation of beardless liberals that can send 200.000 young men into Vietnam to kill and die in the most dubious of wars, but cannot get 100 voter registrars to go into Mississippi.”
He also attacked the liberals who cut the poverty budget in order to spend S2 billion on what he called “that Disneyland creation,” the supersonic transport.
In 1968. Oglesby wrote in Ramparts magazine, “America’s current and growing political turbulence—the emergence of a revolution-minded left from below and a reaction-minded right from above—is one and the same thing as the current and growing disintegration of liberalism.
“It is the sorry collapse of our welfare-warfare, cake-eating and cake-having. Humphrey-style liberalism, that is, which prepares the political stage for the entrance of revolutionaries and reactionaries alike.”
Oglesby offered a program for liberals to improve the country: “Bridge all the old contradictions and close the wounds of America.”
If liberals fail to save the nation, Oglesby said, “American policy will acceleratingly continue its present polarization around the rightist demand for order and the leftist demand for justice.”

Activist says war is not ending

Contrary to what President Nixon would like Americans to believe, the Indochina war is definitely not grinding to a halt, Tom Hayden. New' Left activist, said Tuesday.
The long-haired codefendant ofthe Chicago Seven conspiracy trial said Indochina is presently the site of the fiercest air war in history.
“Most of you thought the demonstrations against the Cambodian invasion in 1970 were ineffective because they didn't end the war,” said Hayden, who added that the Nixon Doctrine calls for chang-
ing conditions in the United States so its people think the war is concluding.
“It (the Nixon Doctrine) has changed the structure of the draft, has changed the war into a less visible war, and has resulted in sort of a gap for us to know (what is happening in Southeast Asia).”
Hayden said that the winding down of the war means the number of Americans killed has gone down from 15,000 in 1969 to 1,400 last year, and that the cost of the war has decreased to about two-thirds of the $35 billion it cost three years ago.
On the other hand, casualty rates for Asians continue to be
staggeringly high, said Hayden.
“In 1969-71 nearly 400,000 were killed in ground action while the w ar wras winding down,” he said.
“The primary way the United States has been intervening while withdrawing troops is through the air. Never have more civilians been bombed in the history of air war.
“By November Nixon will have dropped four million tons of bombs on Indochina—more than four times the tons of bombs dropped in Korea, and more than was dropped by that mad bomber Johnson, who dropped about three million tons of bombs to cause him to (Continued on page 5)

Lee Blackman, ASSC vice-president for academic affairs; Jack Kellerman; Jim Korsen, an ASSC independent representative; Bruce Mitchell, director of the Community Action Coordinating Council; Melvin Murphy, and Herbert Wills announced their candidacies for president. Korsen later withdrew, however, saying, “I decided I’d rather remain human than become student body president.”
Jack McNamara, former independent representative; Stan Olson; and Michael Lance Trope, president of the Student Senate, filed for vice-president for programs. Greg Cole; Cliff Ishi; Chuck Jones, former academic affairs VP; and Laura Kotsiris, Women’s Halls Association president, announced their candidacies for vice-president for academic affairs.
Only one candidate, Kent Clemence, current ASSC president, filed for senior representative, but Bob Emmer later announced he would wage a write-in campaign for the position.
Richard Goepel; Larry Platt;
John Rowell; and Brad Taft, Men’s Halls Association president, filed for junior representative; John Kay, for sophomore representative.

Craig Clemence, an ASSC independent representative, and Bryan Arkelian, MHA vice-president, filed for the office of Associated Men Students president. Ross Boylan filed for AMS vice-president, but Stan Kelton later announced his write-in candidacy.
Hilary Hilton was the only eligible candidate for president of the Associated Women Students, as is Shelly Nolan for vice-president of AWS.
Two students filed for senior class president, a nonvoting ASSC council position—Robert Gobrecht and Marshall Oldman.
The ASSC Elections Commission disqualified four students because they failed to appear at the mandatory candidates’ meeting yesterday. Mary Smith and William Alderman were thrown out of the vice-president for programs race; Niessen Foster, from the AMS president race; and Steve Wiley, junior representative, from the senior class president race.
